It would be harder if they had any fanbase to speak of. Still, East Coast games are always tough for West Coast teams.

Yeah the 49ers were home but coming off a Monday night game and the Bengals were coming off a bye. Burrow is healthy and his weapons are healthy. 

The shame is the 49ers lost two very winnable games before this one and full credit to the Bengals but a lot of the issues that led to those other losses crept up in this one too. Need to clean it up and be ready for the Jags after the bye. Jags are hot right now, even with a healthy team off the bye, playing them at home will be tough.

My impression of the game was that it was two good teams playing pretty good football, but the 49ers made some really untimely mistakes. I still thought Purdy looked better than most of the starting QB's in the league. 

Also, Joe Burrow is back and there's no shame in losing to him when he's on.
